Toy: Magnetic Magna-Tiles

Made by J and his kindergarten friend


This is such a great toy which the children in J's kindergarten love.  Magna-tiles are very open-ended and it encourages creativity. It can be incorporated into practically any game, a compartment where a kid can hide inside, a palace, etc.

It is very educational too all the way from preschool to learning geometry. It is also useful for teaching patterns.

By playing and putting together all the different 3-dimensional forms, your child gets to be familiarized with making cubes, making a square with two right-triangles, making a trapezoid with, three isosceles triangles, etc.
